Las Vegas; July 8, 2002-Want to dress up like Cher? Want to answer
Cher trivia questions in a twisted version of The Weakest Link? Want to bid on
Sonny & Cher memorabilia? Want to sing in a Cher karaoke? Want to win a
brand new Harely-Davidson motorcycle autographed by Cher? Want to see Cher's
Cleopatra costume from the movie "Mermaids." Want to (we're not
kidding about this) participate in a seminar on Cher?

If the answer to any of these questions is in the affirmative then you need
to be at the Riviera Hotel in Las Vegas, July 12th and 13th. This is where the
serious Cher fans from the US and at least eight other countries will gather for
the Second Cher Convention. The first convention was held in July 2000 in
Chicago was an overwhelming success.

Fans will be Cher-ing it up even more this year with two dinner shows, a
charity auction and all day, wall-to-wall Cher Convention activities. What
better town for a Cher convention than Las Vegas?

Funds raised at the convention will go to a great cause that also has a
strong Cher connection: the Children's Craniofacial Association (CCA). Cher
first became involved with CCA following her award winning performance in
"Mask," in which she played the mother of a boy born with a severe
facial disfigurement. Cher is the National Spokesperson for CCA, and often
attends the organization's events, particularly the annual retreat for the CCA
kids and their families. Cher also visits affected children and invites them to
her shows across the country. The convention was conceived as a unique way of
honoring Cher by supporting a cause in which she deeply believes. Additional
information about CCA can be found at www.ccakids.com <http://www.ccakids.com>.

Funds raised from raffling off a Cher-autographed, new Harley-Davidson
Softtail motorcycle will go directly to CCA.

Cher fans from around the country organize the Cher Convention. Additional
